Description
Britt Bradford and Zander Ford have been the best of friends
since they met thirteen years ago. Unbeknown to Britt, Zander has been
in love with her for just as long.
Independent and adventurous Britt channels her talent into creating chocolates at her hometown shop. Zander is a bestselling author who's spent the past 18 months traveling the world. He's achieved a great deal but still lacks the only thing that ever truly mattered to him--Britt's heart.
When Zander's uncle dies of mysterious causes, he returns to Merryweather, Washington, to investigate, and Britt is immediately there to help. Although this throws them into close proximity, both understand that an attempt at romance could jeopardize their once-in-a-lifetime friendship. But while Britt is determined to resist any change in their relationship, Zander finds it increasingly difficult to keep his feelings hidden.
As they work together to uncover his uncle's tangled past, will the truth of what lies between them also, finally, come to light? AMAZON 3.5 STARS
Let me say right off the bat that I thought the cover for this eBook was gorgeous. In fact it was the first thing that really caught my eye.
It made me slow down and take another look.
Zander and Britt were interesting and so were their individual quirks. So was the long history that they had between them.
There was really good world building with LOTS of details. For me, it felt over-detailed in certain areas. By 20% on my Kindle I was already tired of all the food details. I just felt like a certain amount was necessary (and even enjoyable) to the story but it also really slowed the story down too. So did all of the angst from Zander and the confusion that Britt began to have.
Britt had a really good group of family and friends and she hadn't been shy about pulling Zander into that group years ago. There was a good feel to the community itself.
The mystery of Zander's uncle's past was a good one with a lot of twists and surprises.
I also enjoyed the influence of God that was weaved into the story as well.
Zander and Britt do get their H.E.A. which I was glad to see. Because wow...Zander really deserved it!! That's not to say that I didn't like Britt just that he had been so honorable and waited so long. That emotion really did come through. I just wish I had liked this book more.
